I'm honestly wondering who you're responding to with this. Of course the vulnerabilities are software. Why would they be hardware? OP talked about how he couldn't update the software to allow him to access an app he wanted to use. They're on iOS, and you're talking about Android. Do you think developers don't debug their software at all? 99.99% of devs aren't intentionally creating vulnerabilities in their software. We're not talking about web development?

Solid link, thanks for sharing!

Just because the phone companies should be doing that doesn't mean that you don't account for what the current case is. My personal laptop is over a decade old, and my phone is several years old too. I am absolutely a supporter of using your old devices as long as they're still useful, but when you start to become vulnerable to security issues on a device you use consistently everyday, you need to fix that, whatever the solution may be.

I applaud you for using your iPhone 7 for so long, but seriously, it's time to upgrade. I'm amazed you haven't run into issues before now, and continuing to use devices that are so old opens you up to security flaws. You can get one that is a few years old for cheap, It will be able to access everything modern, and last you another several years.

Wholesome AF. Saving to read through them later. I don't really have anything to add myself, unfortunately.

No, this is not normal. I would honestly look for a different general practitioner. I would start by just getting a full blood work panel done if you haven't had that yet, and hopefully that will provide some insights right off the bat.

Those are 100% duct taped cardboard.

As far as connecting the internet, there shouldn't be any issue. I seriously doubt it will automatically connect to anything unless you tell it to.

That was a pretty badass trailer!

I haven't really noticed anything in that regard. I've also been curious about the collectibility of physical copies of online only games. If the game is no longer playable, is there actually any value? I feel like things are a little too early to say at this point, but given how rare this title will seemingly be, I'm hedging my bets.

[–] JackDark@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I'm a collector, and this is a game that may have a high value in the future due to being rare. If it was literally only available for 2 weeks and they pulled all the remaining copies and refunded people, there's not going to be many, and I will have a sealed copy. Of course, it's possible that they may re-release it in the future if they decide it's worth the money to tweak it, but I honestly kind of doubt it. You may be wondering why it matters if it literally can't be played and who would want it, and that's absolutely a fair question, but in the end, the answer is collectors.

I didn't realize that there was a physical release for this game. I just bought myself a copy to keep sealed in my collection.
